yes!

Everyone sighed. This battle was bound to happen sooner or later; the two sides were sworn enemies and there was no way to avoid it.

In an instant, everyone's eyes turned to Old Eagle, the commander of the Heavenly Eagle Guard.

" Old Eagle, your Heavenly Eagle Guard needs to make some progress. Your eagle can even get into Great Ning, why can't it get into Xiliang?" A minor king couldn't help but challenge him, this was a typical case of someone occupying a position without doing anything.

If you can't do it, then let us take control of the Heavenly Eagle Guard. That's a powerful force.

The Old Eagle was speechless, then sighed, "This is indeed my dereliction of duty. I don't know why, Xiliang always manages to spot our people immediately, even when we're disguised. I'm sure you've sent people to test them out, haven't you?"

Upon hearing this, the room fell silent; they actually tried it.

After all, Xiliang had good things like potatoes, and also ocean fishing, so they naturally wanted to see if they could make a fortune, but unfortunately they all failed.

Tuoba Wanli glanced at everyone and sneered, "Shut up, all of you. This is not the time to pursue this. The disappearance of the scouts ahead is a signal, a signal that the enemy is attacking."

Qingsong immediately led an army of 100,000 to support Yelü Dafeng. This first battle was of paramount importance and absolutely could not be allowed to go wrong.

To be honest, he's a master of sneak attacks!

There is absolutely no such thing as crossing the border without a reason; that's clearly impossible. The only possibility is that the hunter is about to make a move.

"Yes!"

Tuoba Qingsong nodded and stepped forward; he was the one to lead the support team.

Watching his retreating figure, Tuoba Wanli couldn't help but rub his temples, feeling a sense of foreboding for some reason.

At this moment, the Xiliang army finally entered the South Mountain Plain, where Ma Chao was already waiting to meet them.

Upon seeing Lin Yi, Ma Chao excitedly said, "My lord, I have cleared the outposts in front of Wind and Snow City and also found out the enemy's situation."

Wind and Snow City only has 100,000 troops. Now, we await your arrival, my lord, to destroy Wind and Snow City in one fell swoop!

A hint of approval flashed in Lin Yi's eyes. Ma Chao had indeed grown. It seemed that Jia Xu had given him a lot of guidance. This move of eliminating the enemy's eyes in advance was a brilliant strategy.

A large army cannot march without making a sound; it will inevitably be discovered by the enemy.

However, if the enemy loses their eyes, they won't know the specific situation on their side and will only make wild guesses, which will create fear invisibly.

As for dealing with that army of 100,000, he could only sneer.

It seems that Tuoba Wanli was not stupid; he had long been prepared to attack the Northern Barbarians, so he deployed a large army.

It's a pity that 100,000 troops were still too few! Tuoba Wanli seriously underestimated the strength of Xiliang!

He looked at Bai Zizai, Gongsun Zan, Zhang Liao and others behind him, and laughed, "Brothers, months of preparation are all for today's explosion."

This is a war of annihilation, and also a war of revenge. I, the King, do not want to see too many Northern Barbarians alive!

The Northern Barbarians owed us a debt, and now I'm making them pay it back!

The hatred for killing one's mother is irreconcilable; this battle will leave his corpses strewn across the fields and his blood flowing like rivers!

There's no such thing as surrendering and escaping death; I'll leave them all dead.

Upon hearing this, Jia Xu's lips twitched.

He couldn't see how much his lord hated the Northern Barbarians. The reason he was going on a killing spree was probably because he didn't want to see a troublemaker causing trouble around him!

Why!

The Northern Barbarians died because of their excessive leaping!

Heh heh!

Bai Zizai trembled with excitement, sneering, "Rest assured, my lord, this time I will make them know what it means to pay for a blood debt! They slaughtered over 400,000 of my Northern Liang people back then, and this time I will ensure not a single one is spared!!!"

Bai Zizai's killing intent surged!

The murderous intent that had been frozen for nearly three months erupted once more; after all, he had a blood feud with the Northern Barbarians.

I will not rest in peace until I avenge this grudge!

"Rest assured, my lord, Gongsun Zan will surely annihilate them for you!" Gongsun Zan said excitedly, his eyes bloodshot.

The key to conquering the Northern Barbarians tribes lay in the mobility of cavalry, and the White Horse Volunteers were among the best.

" The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are as fierce as wolves and tigers; the enemy will become our glory!"

Zhang Liao's eyes were also shining brightly. This was his chance to prove himself, and he was determined to make Ma Chao look at him with new eyes!

kindness!

Seeing the bloodlust in everyone's eyes, Lin Yi nodded slightly and casually drew a simple map on the ground.

After studying for several months, he had a thorough understanding of the map of the Northern Barbarians and the enemy's troop deployment Net had already scouted it out, estimating that the enemy had about 100,000 troops in Wind and Snow City, 50,000 in Great Wind Valley, and 100,000 in Great Yu Mountain.

The rest of the troops were in Yulong City, which is also the capital of the Northern Barbarians King. They had obviously also realized Xiliang's intentions to fight.

Unfortunately, it was too late!

The seven legions of Xiliang have reached their peak and are now at the height of their power. Although only five legions have been deployed so far, it is enough to bring them annihilation!

Lin Yi drew several arcs on the map and immediately decided on the battle plan.

"In this attack on Wind and Snow City, the Tiger and Tiger and Leopard Cavalry will be the main offensive force. We will use the heavily armored Tiger Cavalry to launch a strong assault on Wind and Snow City, with the Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors Squad providing support. Our goal is to rout the enemy's 100,000-strong army as quickly as possible!"

"As for Ma Chao, he knows this place like the back of his hand. I order you to cut off the enemy's retreat immediately and annihilate 100,000 men in Wind and Snow City!"

The enemy excels at escaping; to annihilate them, we must outflank their rear!

"Your subordinate obeys!"

Zhang Liao and Ma Chao were overjoyed; this was a victory they had just earned!

"My lord, what about me?" Gongsun Zan was dumbfounded. In terms of speed, we are the fastest. I should be covering the rear!

Lin Yi pointed his hand, landing on the Great Wind Valley behind him, and said in a deep voice, " The White Horse Volunteers light cavalry, their speed unparalleled in the All Under Heaven. There are 50,000 enemy troops here. I want you to annihilate them as quickly as possible. Do you have the confidence?"

Speed is of the essence in warfare; the goal is to catch the enemy off guard.

Instead of waiting for Great Wind Valley to strengthen its defenses, it's better to catch them off guard and take them down with us.

With Wind and Snow City blocking their way, Great Wind Valley will inevitably be less vigilant, which presents an opportunity for the White Horse Volunteers to annihilate the enemy as quickly as possible.

With 500,000 elite troops at my disposal, attacking just one Wind and Snow City would be making a mountain out of a molehill.

If we're going to take action, let's go all out!

Hiss!

Everyone's pupils contracted. Attacking the two major strongholds of the Northern Barbarians at once was a move that had truly caught them off guard, but upon closer inspection, it was indeed feasible.

If it were Great Ning, it might be a long detour, but this is the Northern Barbarians, the vast grasslands!

We can just charge straight in.

Hahaha!

Gongsun Zan burst into laughter, excitedly saying, "My lord, rest assured! Even if Great Wind Valley only has 50,000 men, or even 100,000, my White Horse Volunteers can annihilate them!"

This is a big job, and my White Horse Volunteers take it!

"Very good!"

Lin Yi nodded. This kind of fierce aura was exactly what made a truly powerful army. He said in a deep voice, " Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, bring our secret weapons. This time, success is the only option; failure is not an option!"
